Family with children to travel New Zealand in caravan in search of farm ownership

Anastasia and Hayden Tristram, along with their two young daughters, plan to start a caravan journey across New Zealand in October to learn about different farming systems and find their own farm. The couple lost their leased sheep and beef farm in central Hawke's Bay when it was sold for pine plantations. They have bought a caravan and intend to work as farming contractors, gathering information on various agricultural sectors, including dairy and horticulture.

Permanent restrictions imposed on freedom camping in Wānaka

The Queenstown Lakes District Council has made permanent restrictions on freedom camping at two hotspots in Wānaka. Camping is now prohibited at the Allenby Pl carpark at the foot of Mt Iron due to health and safety issues, including a narrow access way with limited visibility for drivers, pedestrians, and cyclists. The council also proposed banning camping at Beacon Point Rd during December and January. Three additional designated spaces were added at Wānaka Recreation Centre.

New motorhome park proposed on New Brighton red zone land

The New Zealand Motor Caravan Association (NZMCA) has applied to Christchurch City Council for a 10-year transitional lease of 5,000–10,000 sq m at 60–80 Owles Terrace, New Brighton, to accommodate up to 100 motorhomes and caravans. The site is on vacant red zoned land, previously affected by earthquakes. Basic amenities would include rubbish bins and potable water, with a possible wastewater dump station. The park would be restricted to NZMCA members in certified self-contained motorhomes and caravans, with a maximum stay of 10 days per 30-day period. Opening is optimistically targeted for summer 2026–2027, but more realistically late 2027 if resource consent is required.
